When I created my blog, I did so because I have a strong love of reading, and wanted to share my love of books, and the books themselves, with my friends and loved ones. And the best way to celebrate, I think, is to recognize some of my favorite books…and to give them away!
All of the books pictured will be given to one lucky person. It so happens that the majority of these books were books I read a long with the online book club I belong to, Pageturners. We’ve been a group for over six years now. They are some of my very best friends! I think I enjoyed these books so much because of the discussions they generated.
There are over 20 books in this giveaway:
The Memory Keeper’s Daughter
The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency
Valley of the Dolls
The Bookseller of Kabul
The Mercy of Thin Air
Full of Grace
Under the Tuscan Sun
The Secret Life of Bees
Mrs. Kimble
Living History
A Gift Upon the Shore
Second Glance
A Million Little Pieces
Measure of A Man
Two Old Woman
The Time Traveler’s Wife
Kite Runner
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn
Son of A Witch
The Sound and the Fury
A Light in August
As I Lay Dying

Thanks for such a great giveaway. I would like the chance to re-read some of these and discover new ones that I haven’t read. sharonaquilino(at)hotmail(dot)com
What a wonderful selection of books. I’ve read some of them, and I agree with you – they are thought-provoking. I also like that some of them were written years ago and some are current authors.
My fave giveaways are jewelry, books, and bags. Not necessarily in that order, the order changes from day to day.
Thank you for sharing some old friends and some new ones!

Please don’t enter me for a giveaway. I just wanted to congratulate you on your 200th post, it’s simply wonderful. And also I’ve noticed we have similar tastes in books since quite a few of the ones you listed also happen to be on my most liked books’ list, i.e. The Memory Keeper’s Daughter, The Mercy of Thin Air, anything by Picoult and so on and so forth.
Congrats once again!

I’d feel like it was an early Christmas for me if I won this many books.
